Album: Paging Mr. Strike

My Ex-girlfriend's Boyfriend

This is a song I wrote by mistake
Which is nice

My ex-girlfriend's boyfriend's got a band
He writes love songs about her, and from what I understand
He's the expert now at takin' off her clothes
He's got two songs on the radio, I wish I'd written those

My ex-girlfriend's boyfriend's got a band

My ex-girlfriend's boyfriend's got a band
Writes love songs about her even I can understand
And he's got a certain something, I suppose
His new song's on the radio, and this is how it goes
(this is him singing):

I don't want to live in this world anymore
I don't want to live in this world anymore
(He doesn't want to live in this world anymore)
Where will I find true love?
(Where will he find true love?)

My ex-girlfriend naked on the sand
A summer's day two years ago, when I was still her man
I was the expert then at takin' off her clothes
And that's all ancient history, and that's the way it goes

But I've been working on my keyboards (yeah, right)
Practising guitar
And taking lots of bass lessons to expand my repertoire
And my new girlfriend, my new girlfriend,
My new girlfriend, my new girlfriend,
My new girlfriend, my new girlfriend,
My new girlfriend, my new girlfriend,
My new girlfriend, my new girlfriend,
My new girlfriend, my new girlfriend,
My new girlfriend's boyfriend's got a band
